Louis van Gaal ‘wants Manchester United to complete Nicolas Otamendi and Sergio Ramos transfers’
Manchester United are reportedly aiming to reshape their defence by pairing Valencia’s Nicolas Otamendi with Real Madrid’s Sergio Ramos.
Reports suggest that United are finally closing in on a deal for Otamendi after months of negotiations, with the Spanish side seemingly preparing for his departure by moving for Ezequiel Garay.
But according to AS, Louis van Gaal is keen to add more than one centre-back to his squad, and wants to play Otamendi alongside Ramos in the heart of his defence.
Together, the pair could cost close to £100million, but would provide United with an accomplished defensive partnership that they arguably haven’t had since the departures of Nemanja Vidic and Rio Ferdinand.
